Why Call It Web 2.0?

Comments: 0    

Via Alexander Muse at the Texas Venture Capital Blog. BusinessWeek posts (boldface added by me):

But Tim O'Reilly, whose publishing company runs the Web 2.0 conference, makes an impassioned defense that goes beyond mere self-interest. He notes that the term has helped define a new generation of technologies whose social nature differs qualitatively from the broadcast-oriented first generation of Web technologies.

I think that BusinessWeek captures it nicely. But as Alexander point out in his post, some should be concerned that many people have no idea what others are talking about when referring to "Web 2.0". This new generation of technologies gives new meaning to the term "generation gap".

And yes, I do (personally) consider 21Publish a Web 2.0 company.
